For a whole year I was going back to the doctors with the same symptoms, and there was no real diagnoses for the problem and nothing was being done to help me. After countless trips back and fourth I was finally admitted to hospital and undergoed tests after going unconcious for 25 minutes. When I went back to the surgery, I told the surgery everything and they saw the results and looked back at my family history. They insisted nothing was wrong. I kept going back with the same symptoms, and they wrongly diagnosed me. 3 months later after being told I had a muscle problem that could be fixed With expensive physiotherapy, I was admitted into hospital again and after an ultrasound scan it reveiled I had large and vicious gallstones that were blocking the passage into my gallbladder and was highly infected and my life could be at risk. I was kept in hospital through Christmas and New year of 2013 and after a month of being in hospital with various medications and drips to calm the infection down, they could finally operate and took my gallbladder out. If ALL of the doctors (baring in mind I saw ALL of them during this time) had listened to my symptoms and family history and offered me some sort of test then I definatly wouldn't have had to go through what I did. No one offered me actual help but instead just gave me loads of painkillers. Useless, if it was up to me I would have them redo their medical degree for not being able to detect something I'd been going for a year about,

I would just like to say that I have used this surgery for over 40 years. The last few years it is been extremely difficult to get appointment and actually talk to someone. Fortunately I have not had to use it too much, but more so in the last few years. I have phoned twice in the last 3 weeks, and to my great surprise phone was answered immediately by a very lovely friendly lady, and to make it even better I was offered an immediate appointment. This morning I phoned re trying to get a prescription, and again instant answer, very helpful receptionist, she took my details and said she would sort it out for me. So full marks to Lingfield Surgery. I need to see if this continues before I would say that I can recommend the practice, but it is looking so much better. I do understand it is not easy for them, but thank you for answering the phone with a voice, and no pressing buttons, I may just have been lucky.

Have just seen Dr. Ajmani and she is the nicest, most caring doctor I have ever had. Puts you totally at ease and explains everything in an easy to understand way. Also the practice as a whole has treated us very well. The only snag, not unique to Lingfield, is the time it takes, sometimes, to get an appointment with the doctor you want.
